At the end of a pier sits a decrepit fisherman’s shack. Inside, a lost young girl finds a grizzled tramp; a recluse, a frightened storyteller.

The tramp’s stories bring the discarded cans, the dusty ropes, and surroundings to life. Yet not all is as it seems.

Acclaimed Canberran playwright, Duncan Ley, a former Patrick White Playwright’s Award nominee, has written a powerful story of life, love, loss and guilt: a journey towards a man’s confrontation with himself and his past.

This world premiere is a searing tale where a single decision in the smallest of moments can change a family forever.
